Sue Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My tear duct gloats
My left eye he broken
Medicate with warm compress
Extract ardent tears

[Chorus]
Sue me, sue me, sue me - all you want
I won't denounce our origin
Sue me, sue me, sue me - all you want
I won't denounce our origin

[Verse 2]
I've ducked and dived
Like the mother in Solomon's Tale
To spare our girl
I won't let her get Cut in Half, ever
But it's time to teach you some dignity

[Chorus]
Sue me, sue me, sue me - all you want
I won't denounce our origin
Sue me, sue me, sue me, sue me - all you want
I won't denounce our origin (no I won't)

[Bridge]
He took it from his father
Who took it from his father
Who took it from his father
Let's break this curse
So it won't fall on our daughter
And her daughter
And her daughter
Won't let this sink into her DNA

[Chorus]
Sue me, sue me, sue me - sue me all you want
I won't let you denounce our origin
Sue me, sue me, sue me
Denounce our origin, no I won't

[Outro]
Can't take her suffer
It's so unfair
The sins of the father
They've just fucked it all up
They have fucked it all up
It's all in your hands
He just proved the strength in her, narcissistic

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This is as straight as it gets. About divorce. Her tears literally turned to stone when it concerns her daughter´s well being. 'Solomon´s tale' is a childbook about a cat coping with family crisis, separation and rebirth. It was probably recomended by a psychologist. She won´t let the mysoginistic mind of the ex-husband get to her daughter.
He learned it from his father. This thoughts and behaviours of patriarchy are cruel and have to end.
